Why I took my holiday in Chernobyl

Several years ago, the film-maker and journalist Andrew Blackwell set out to explore some of the places that were ostensibly among the most unappealing in the world. In his new paperback, Visit Sunny Chernobyl, he talks about his journeys to six of the world's most polluted places, and why he made the trip. The following are the images he took of Chernobyl in the Ukraine, including his explanation of why he went. Essentials All images in this gallery are courtesy of Andrew Blackwell. Visit Sunny Chernobyl is available in paperback from the Telegraph Bookshop
